After so much success with our Porsche 997 GT3R programme, it made sense for us to progress on to the 991 chassis and we are pretty excited with the last few months organising all of the parts we have available, lets face it the "R is the pinnacle, its the crème de la crème. Apart from the amazing carbon fibre body work, we have also been adding to this programme so we have all of the right parts available for the conversion, just as we have had for the 997 programme.

One thing we love about what we do is meeting various people within our industry, from owners to enthusiasts, Videographers to Photographers, so it always good to me a fellow Porsche enthusiast as well as a talented Photographer, Lucas Dulski.

Lucas got in touch with us as he desperately wanted to see the Speedwells 997 Turbo-R up close and personal, but he wanted to shoot the Turbo-R too, and after taking a delve into his past work, we would have been silly not to let him indulge in his passion of taking photos of all things Porsche.

After organising and deciding on a date to suit all parties, Lucas took the drive down from Chester for his preferred night shoot and it’s a shoot we also wanted to try as the Turbo looks so sinister with its murdered out black look, which is about to change in the coming weeks, so we were intrigued to see how this shoot would turn out and it didn't disappoint, Lucas certain has skills behind the lens, with a meticulous attention to detail.

We had a very long but enjoyable evening shooting the Speedwells Turbo-R, starting in the heart of Solihull in Birmingham getting pictures as dusk fell, then driving around finding other cool locations to shoot the car, my personal favourite was a car park next to Touchwood shopping centre, it was such cool location as night time fell.

For anyone looking for a great photographer we can highly recommend Lucas, he knows exactly how a car should be pictured, all you have to do it bring your vehicle of choice and let him do what he does best which is getting creative, but don't take our word for it, check out his work on Facebook & Instagram pages. Until next time Lucas.

 

It is always good to finish a build stand back and admire what has been put together, albeit pictures or videos just do not do this build any justice, its definitely a car that need to be seen, following this beauty a few days ago made all the hairs of the back of my neck stand on end, such an incredible sight, the width of this beauty in the flesh is awe-inspiring.

The final piece of the puzzle is being manufactured by our wheel partner Lite Speed racing, the VAD CR-Evo is making way for a set of RS5 centres that will sit inside the the 10" and 14" barrels that currently sit on the car, but will be finish in a new colour to lift some of the black out of the build.

The car will be on display though out the year at certain shows, and it really is worth seeing the car in personal to appreciate the quality of the build.

Bilstien have partnered on the build, so the first show for the car is Players Classic at Goodwood Circuit the end of this month, then its on to fitted UK.
